The Eclipse of Karl Kautsky, 1914-1924

David W. Morgan

Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT, U.S.A.

The abrupt decline of Karl Kautsky's influence and reputation during the First World War and German Revolution is traced not only to the gap between his doctrines and the shifting orientation of German and international socialism, but to some specific features of his outlook and situation: his rationalistic, moderate and mediating proclivities, his inability to maintain a connection to any political party on the German scene, and his loss of personal connections to the higher realms of practical politics.
